This is a wide-field image spanning 16.5×11.0° capturing the central region of Camelopardalis.
At the right edge of the image, α and β Cam are visible.
In this area, there are extremely faint molecular clouds, with the largest being LBN 698, visible towards the left side of the image,
which spans nearly 2 degrees east to west according to catalogs.
In reality, a filamentary nebula extends to the right of the image, connecting to LBN 687, and its length measures approximately 6.7 degrees.
